Ignition booster

Abstract

Improved ignition systems for substantially increasing the gas mileage and boosting the voltage utilizing a standard magneto and isolated breaker points and an additional condenser. In one embodiment, the secondary of the magneto has been separated from the primary and a condenser has been added in the secondary winding. Another embodiment separates the secondary and primary windings and adds a condenser in the secondary.

I claim as my invention: 
     
       1. An ignition system for an engine comprising a magneto having a rotor and primary and secondary windings, a pair of breaker points connected across said primary winding and periodically opened and closed, a first capacitor connected between ground and one end of said primary winding, a distributor with a rotor to which one end of said secondary winding is connected, a second capacitor connected between the other end of said secondary winding and ground, and said distributory rotor, magneto rotor and said breaker points actuated by said engine. 
     
     
       2. An ignition system according to claim 1 wherein the other end of said primary winding is connected to the other end of said secondary winding. 
     
     
       3. An ignition system according to claim 1 including a switch connected across said primary winding. 
     
     
       4. An ignition system according to claim 1 wherein the other end of said primary winding is connected to ground. 
     
     
       5. An ignition system for an engine comprising, a distributor with a rotor, an ignition coil with primary and secondary windings, a first capacitor connected between one end of said secondary winding and ground, the other end of said secondary winding connected to said distributor rotor, a pair of breaker points actuated by said engine and connected between ground and one end of said primary winding, a voltage source connected between ground and the second end of said primary winding, a second capacitor connected between ground and said one end of said primary  winding, and a third capacitor connected between ground and said second end of said primary winding.
